But seriously. This is in Leuven, so is this to disencourage students from drinking large volumes? Weird.

  1. Or they prey on ppl that couldn’t count anymore since they are drunk. 😂

  3. This is marketing: they want you to order the 33cl, since the beer isn’t the cost, it’s the location, the personnel. Probably their margin is bigger when you order more units compared to more volume

  4. I wouldn’t never pay 3,30 for a silly pils. That’s hella expensive.

  6. Or they encourage people who think they’re smart to order two 25cl ones but actually they just need one.

  7. whats it called again when they give you an illusion of a better deal. ? … fastfood do this do… decoy effect?

  8. Pricing stuff isn’t only a matter of math, it’s also a matter of psychology.

    What’s happening here is that an organization prefers to sell one size (the 33cl one) and aims to improve customer satisfaction by giving them the illusion of choice. If they just list the 33cl size, some customers might be ticked off because they wanted different sizes; if they list all 3 then everyone’s happy and 95% of the customers take 33cl.

    There could be more to it. Purely speculative examples::

    * a customer goes back for more rounds (totaling more profit) if the quantity per round is smaller.

    * the restaurant doesn’t want to buy a stockpile of 50cl glasses so they steer customers to 33cl glasses.

  9. If the students can’t figure this one out. I don’t want them to be doctors or engineers.

  10. Kind of all over the place yeah, 50cl worse per volume than 25cl but the 33cl best of all.

    Maybe they have very few 50cl glasses or something lol.

  11. Lack of 50cl glasses 🙂 my used to be pub explained it to me

  12. It could be due to their 50cl being hard to clean or not fitting on whatever cleaning machine they have so they might need to be washed by hand.

    this is just speculation though.

  13. Probably marketed towards more Eastern European tourists?

    They mainly serve beer in 50cl glasses there.

    And I think our Dutch northern neighbours can order a pilsje which is 25cl

  14. Perhaps they don’t have that many 50cl glasses and so they want to reduce demand?

  15. It’s to make you feel smart while still paying €3.5 for a 33er.

  16. Wow, those prices!!! 😲 Was a student 10 years ago and man I would not touch beer if that’s the price.

  19. Zeven euro voor een halve liter bier in een bierenland.

    Ja
    Wadde
    Dadde

  20. “02 Stella 25cls and an empty half liter glass please!”

    /s

  21. That’s for the Dutch, they always steal the glasses.

  22. That half liter had better come with some nibbles.

    Kinda tempted to go there and ask.

  26. Godverdomme. Is het al 3.5 euro voe ne piente?

    Woar is den tied dak nog hin 2 euro betaalde voe ne piente

  27. It’s tradition, most bruine kroegen offer 33 at the same price.
